Nurses want Kapil Sharma


A group of agitating nurses alleged that Sharma in his TV show depicted their profession in bad light besides passing derogatory remarks to defame it.

Sharma, who hails from Amritsar, was making fun of medical professionals in his show on a private entertainment channel, they said while demanding to stop the show's telecast.

Punjab Nursing Association President Raj Bedi, who was leading the protest, visited the police station outside the hospital and submitted a written complaint against Sharma demanding registration of criminal case against him.

Bedi claimed doctors have also been depicted in a derogatory way in the show.

Nurses during protest also tore the posters of Sharma.
